GOING: S(5)

Tasbred Race Meeting 11th April 0 - 60 Rating 1200m

Track: SOFT 5   Rain (Max: 18)   Rail: +4m Entire. (Pent: 4.52)  

Moderate tempo expected with Flying Billie likely to find the front over Swinging It and Mcsweyn. GEEGEES MISTY (7) has missed a whisker twice this track/distance and peaks off those. She raced favourite the latest and should enjoy a soft run from the inside barrier. Ready to win. FLYING BILLIE (4) switched barns and resumed beaten 1L on the synthetic. He will be fitter and is just as good on the turf. MCSWEYN (3) goes well third-up, and a talented apprentice is engaged. He's back plenty in grade and gets his chance. SANDUAL (1) is hard to catch, but the shorter sprint may suit better. He would need to put his best foot forward. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Geegees Misty.
